Company: Blancco Ltd.

Published: 23 March, 2009

Blancco Ltd., the global leader in data erasure and end-of-lifecycle solutions, has launched a tailored data erasure solution for SPARC servers and workstations. High end SPARC servers are typically used by data centres and organisations with mass data needs using the SPARC architecture offered by companies such as Sun Microsystems.

Blancco's data erasure services are certified by the highest authorities and adhere to strict international standards for compliance with global security and privacy regulations. As the industry leader, Blancco's experience ensures smooth integration into any organisation with an automated process for data erasure, hardware asset management and report collection.

Mikko Koponen, COO of Blancco Oy stated "Blancco SPARC Edition is exceptionally fast and a 100 % secure data destruction solution as it can simultaneously erase 200 or more hard disks per server. For our customers this means they get a robust process for data erasure, with the peace of mind that exposure to legal liabilities is mitigated. It also enables the safe redeployment of the IT assets, with the operational and financial advantage of extending the lifecycle of the equipment".

He added, "The significance of Blancco releasing a SPARC offering is it overcomes the previously limited tools available in the market for processing this range of equipment. As the global leader in data erasure Blancco is therefore proud to continue to support the widest range of hardware, with once again supporting a new platform of IT equipment."
